3. Rental terms & conditions

Deposit & payment

• A $600 refundable deposit by Interac e-Transfer to bedbugsheater@gmail.com is required to confirm the booking. Please put your booking number in the e-Transfer message.
• The booking is only confirmed once the deposit is received. Until then, equipment goes first-come, first-served.
• All payments are by e-Transfer only.
• The rental cost (and delivery, if chosen) is deducted from the deposit when the equipment is returned in good condition, and the rest is refunded after inspection.
• If the total owing is more than the deposit, the difference is paid by e-Transfer when the equipment is returned.

Cancellation

• At least 12 hours’ notice is required to cancel or change a booking.
• Cancelling with less than 12 hours’ notice may result in a $50 fee deducted from the deposit.

Equipment responsibility

• The renter is fully responsible for the equipment from pick-up (or drop-off) until it is returned.
• Any loss, theft or damage (including burns, electrical faults or improper use) will be charged for repair or replacement and deducted from the deposit.
• The equipment may only be used indoors for bed bug heat treatment, and must be kept away from water and flammable materials.

Proper use & safety

• An adult must be at the property and check the heaters, fan and room temperature at least once every hour while the equipment is running. If anything looks wrong, switch it off right away.
• Each room needs 8–10 hours of heat, and the machines must rest 2–4 hours before being used in the next room.
• Before starting, locate the sprinkler heads and smoke detectors in the area. Heat can set off sprinklers, so follow the guide on how to protect them.
• Remove heat-sensitive and flammable items such as aerosol cans, lighters, candles, medications, plants, pets and fish, and keep anything flammable at least 3 feet from the heaters.
• Use the power distribution boxes only with a dryer or stove outlet, exactly as shown in the instruction guide. Do not modify any cords or connections.
• I will read the instruction guide and watch the setup video before using the equipment.

Liability waiver

The rental provider is not responsible for any damage to property, fire incidents or personal injury arising from misuse or negligence. The renter assumes all risk and liability while operating the equipment.

Return condition

• Equipment must be returned clean, complete and in working condition on or before the agreed return date and time.
• Late returns are charged $175 per extra day, deducted from the deposit.
• The refund (deposit minus rental and any charges) is processed after inspection.

Refusal of service

• The provider may refuse rental to anyone who does not follow these terms or does not provide valid ID and the deposit.
